List of Australian High Commissioners to Singapore

The High Commissioner of Australia to Singapore is an officer of the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and the head of the High Commission of the Commonwealth of Australia to the Republic of Singapore. The High Commissioner has the rank and status of an Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary and is currently Philip Green. In 2015, Australia and Singapore celebrated 50 years of diplomatic relations alongside celebrations for 50 years of Singapore's independence.
==History of relations==
Singapore and Australia have enjoyed official diplomatic relations since 10 August 1965, following Singapore's independence when it was expelled from Malaysia the day before on 9 August. The earliest official representation dates to September 1941 when Minister for External Affairs Sir Frederick Stewart appointed Vivian Gordon Bowden as Trade Commissioner and as Australia's representative in Singapore, although a Trade Commissioner for the East had been posted in Singapore from 1922-1925. Bowden was captured following the Fall of Singapore on 15 February 1942 and was murdered by his Japanese captors two days later, despite his diplomatic status and being a non-combatant prisoner of war.〔Darryl Bennet, 'Bowden, Vivian Gordon (1884–1942)', Australian Dictionary of Biography, National Centre of Biography, Australian National University, http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/bowden-vivian-gordon-9552/text16825, published first in hardcopy 1993, accessed online 15 August 2015.〕 With the end of Japanese occupation, Australia posted a resident Commissioner and Trade Commissioner in post-war Singapore from 1946 to their federation with Malaysia in 1963, when the post became the Deputy High Commission to Malaysia.〔
Australia was the first country to recognise Singapore and the serving Prime Minister at the time of recognition, Sir Robert Menzies, announced "I have informed the Singapore Prime Minister that we will be happy to establish full diplomatic relations with Singapore at the level of High Commissioner and that we wish Singapore well in its new sovereignty and look forward to a continuance of close and friendly relations with the new State and with Malaysia." Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew had made his first visit to Australia in March 1965. Bill Pritchett, who had been serving as Deputy High Commissioner to Malaysia in Singapore since January 1964, was appointed as the first High Commissioner three days after recognition, by Foreign Minister Paul Hasluck.
